After all, Xie Mingzhu is now a hated figure by everyone. As long as he fakes Mingzhu's death and keeps her by his side, nothing will happen.

Therefore, Xie Tongchen did not continue speaking.

Song Ci'an said with a sour face, "You're almost dead, what right do you have to care about Xing'er's life or death?"

"Moreover, Xing'er is still with that Ghost King, and her fate is unknown."

Xie Yuze then realized that they had somehow ended up in the military camp.

They are currently in Xie Tongchen's tent.

"Young General!" came the voice of a soldier outside. "The commander-in-chief is calling for you."

Xie Tongchen paused.

He said, "We'll discuss this later. You keep an eye on the third brother in the tent. I'll be right back."

After speaking, Xie Tongchen lifted the tent flap and went out.

Xie Yuze and Song Ci'an were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

Xie Yuze, his face sour, clutched his chest and slowly moved toward the bed. After a long while, he finally caught his breath, gritted his teeth, and said, "That damned Luo Hanfeng, having Xie Mingzhu wasn't enough for him, he even coveted Xing'er."

"You saw it too, how could Luo Hanfeng possibly let Xing'er go?"

"He also has the Heart-Eating Gu!"

Xie Yuze coughed twice. "Now is not the time to worry about Xing'er's relationship with the Xie family. As long as Luo Hanfeng dies, everything will be fine."

Song Ci looked at Xie Yuze quietly, "Is it you alone who wants Luo Hanfeng dead, or is it really true that everything will be fine after he dies?"

Xie Yuze choked up.

The death of Luo Hanfeng would naturally reduce a lot of trouble, but the biggest enemy now is not Luo Hanfeng, but the Southern Kingdom.

In his previous life, after Luo Hanfeng ascended the throne, he immediately annihilated the Southern Kingdom.

But no one knows how much was sacrificed in the process.

Xie Yuze slowly said, "I wonder if you've heard about your ending from Xing'er's heart."

"Your eldest brother was executed on a pretext after Luo Hanfeng ascended the throne. Naturally, you and your third brother also met a bad end."

“Your elder brother sided with Prince Jin from the very beginning.”

"Doing nothing will only lead to the same outcome."

If it were just talk, even Xie Yuze himself would be skeptical.

But what he said were all experiences from his previous life.

……

the other side.

Luo Hanfeng clenched his fists and put them behind his back, watching the soldiers in the army share the food they had brought. After Xie Tongchen came over, Luo Hanfeng turned to look at Xie Tongchen.

"General Xie, last night I led a few elite soldiers to sneak into the city and steal this grain. We will attack the city as soon as the soldiers have eaten and drunk their fill."

Xie Tongchen said, "Last night, Chao Le led his troops to launch a night attack, but I discovered and stopped them."

As he spoke, Xie Tongchen looked directly into Luo Hanfeng's eyes and said, word by word, "There were no casualties in this night raid."

"However, this court music led away a junior officer from His Highness's camp."

"Young General?"

The smile on Luo Hanfeng's face gradually disappeared.

He immediately turned around and went back to his tent to check.

Upon closer inspection, Xie Mingzhu had vanished!

Luo Hanfeng's smile vanished completely.

His anger surged.

Not only were Xie Xing and the Ghost King not found in the city, but upon returning, Xie Mingzhu was also taken away!

Luo Hanfeng took a deep breath.

Xie Tongchen followed behind Luo Hanfeng and said, "After all, she is a woman. If people find out, His Highness will bring a woman with him when he goes to war, especially Xie Mingzhu. I wonder what His Majesty will think."

Luo Hanfeng sneered, and when he turned around, his expression had become calm and composed. He said, "Is that so?"

"Then what will Your Majesty do if you learn that one person is missing from the General's residence?"

Xie Tongchen said, "This general doesn't know what Your Highness means by this. His Majesty has ordered the Imperial Guards to surround the entire General's Mansion. How could there be a shortage of people?"

The two fell silent, their gazes meeting in mid-air.

Luo Hanfeng's gaze was extremely intimidating.

Xie Tongchen glanced at him a few times, then turned around and said, "We will attack tonight."

The Chu army couldn't wait.

Luo Hanfeng coldly watched Xie Tongchen's departing figure, his lips pressed tightly together.

His eyes were deep and dark.

That night.

The full moon hangs high in the sky, and there isn't a single star in the sky tonight.

Xie Xing rubbed his legs, which were almost broken from walking, and stood on a small hill, looking down at the military camp below. He exclaimed happily, "We're almost there!"

"That's the military camp, Your Highness!"

At that moment, Jun Lanjin's face was deathly pale.

He slowly approached Xie Xing, following Xie Xing's hand to look towards the military camp. After watching for a while, he asked, "Have they made their move?"

what?

So they took action?

Upon closer inspection, Xie Xing indeed saw a long, dark shadow rushing rapidly towards the city in the darkness.

Xie Xing's expression changed.

She became anxious.

【What, what should we do?】

Without a tiger by her side, how could she possibly save Xie Tongchen at the crucial moment?

Jun Lanjin glanced at Xie Xing's anxious expression and said slowly, "Go over there first and send a message by carrier pigeon."

Xie Xing settled down.

With Junlan Jin by my side, there's always a way.

After all, this person is a master strategist on the battlefield.

Xie Xing quickly helped Jun Lanjin up and hurried downstairs.

Meanwhile, inside the city lord's mansion.

Xie Mingzhu was imprisoned in the mansion and thought about escaping from the city lord's mansion all the time.

But how could a weak woman like her escape from the city lord's mansion?

She was locked in the room where Xie Xing had previously stayed.

The twelve concubines still lived next door.

The beautiful concubine sat by the window, looking at Xie Mingzhu with disdain: "You're nothing special. If His Highness really liked you, he wouldn't go a day without coming to see you."

Xie Mingzhu said coldly, "I don't need his approval, nor do I need him to come see me."

The concubine scoffed, "Now that you've entered this manor and become His Highness's woman, what are you pretending to be so aloof for?"

"If you ask me, you're not as beautiful as the previous mistress of this house."

"The previous mistress?" Xie Mingzhu looked at the beautiful concubine.

The concubine chuckled and said, "That woman is clever and witty, with a silver tongue. She looks lively and spirited, but she's quite bold."

"How dare they put three green hats on His Highness in a row."

The beautiful concubine held up three fingers.

Xie Mingzhu: "..."

She was speechless.

"Didn't I hear you have a new guy here? Is his name Xie Xing?"

Xie Mingzhu's eyes gleamed as she inquired of the beautiful concubine.

The concubine shook her head. "There's no one surnamed Xie. It's just that His Highness recently took in a new concubine who was the former mistress of this room."

"That woman, His Highness calls her Jiao'er."

Xie Mingzhu frowned. "My darling?"

She then asked, "What does the newlywed look like?"

The concubine said, "Of course I am much prettier than you. My almond-shaped eyes are lively and bright, and my appearance is charming and lovely."

"Looks innocent, but has a lot of courage."

Xie Mingzhu's expression changed. So this person must be Xie Xing.

"Where did she go?"
